Accident Reporting Procedures – RIDDOR
The Reporting of Injuries, Diseases and Dangerous Occurrences Regulations 1995 (RIDDOR) requires the reporting of work-related accidents, diseases and dangerous occurrences. It applies to all work activities, but not necessarily to all incidents.
Accident reporting and the use of an accident book is a mandatory requirement. A reportable accident will include:
- Deaths
- Major injuries
- Accidents resulting in 3 days off work
- Diseases
- Dangerous occurrences
Employees must be informed of the procedures and the identity of the person responsible for investigating/reporting accidents and the location of the accident record book. The completed pages of the accident record book must be removed and filed separately.
